Wrong side of the district line

Well, let's see what we have here. Looks like an alteration permit for a couple more floors.Ah, yes, that's exactly what we have here. Nope, this isn't a new building at all.And in total context with the other homes. Whoops, what's this? A stop work order for failing to protect adjoining roof. But not for constructing a new building instead of an alteration. Interesting. This is what happens in the non-landmarked sections of Jackson Heights.

Hey could this be another tommy haun property? he has a work order stop on Mazeau street, did he possibly move out of our area and now is hitting your town? Don't understand why Helen Marshall and all council people aren't doing more to stop work like this. YOU GUYS SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF TO ALLOW THIS TO GO ON.....

As long as there are people like limp wrist Dr. Krass around nothing substantial gets accomplished at historic preservation conferences...be it at the "Citizen's Emergency Committee To Preserve Preservation", "4 Burros", etc.

Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap

"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt
